Black lace love

Hooray for Thursday, and my fun colorful look -- I love the pairing of chartreuse and turquoise.

Black lace love

I love this black lace skirt. Possibly the best $13 I spent all year. I would even argue that this is more versatile than any of my little black dresses.

This is the necklace to match the earrings I wore yesterday. I have an aversion to wearing sets together. It feels too matchy. (Don't talk to me about matching the belt to the shoes, it is very, very matchy but I just felt like doing it.)

  23. ACK! I've been LOVING turquoise and chartreuse look ever since I saw it featured on an episode of Gok Wan but haven't managed to pull it off to the degree you have. The shoes avec la belt are incredible!

  24. I loooove this color combo. And, I def. wore my velvet blazer and belted it because I thought that's what you would do!

    I also dislike wearing matching jewelry sets together, it really is too matchy-matchy for me too!
